what do you think about Javy Guerra closing for the dodgers? It sounds like Broxton may be out alot longer now and Mattingly seems to like this kid. you think hes worth a pickup if i need saves? right now my closers are kimbrel and krod with brox on the dl

I’m fine with Zimmermann for Santana. A fair deal and you’re strengthening yourself at a weak position.

As for your other question, I’d go with Big Erv. Sanchez’s wildness is a major concern and there’s talk he might pitch out of the bullpen upon his return from the DL. Erv hasn’t been great this year but he hasn’t been terrible either. I think he’s the safer pick from now through the end of the season.

I am in a 12 team Mix League Keeper. I made two moves over the weekend but wanted your opion. I dumped Posada for A.J. Pierzynski, Then dumped Cory Hart for the hot hitter Eric Thames of Toronto. I can’t understand how Cory is rated so high when lesser players are putting up better numbers. I am looking to make the playoffs, and could not wait on Cory any longer. Was Eric the best choice or should I have picked up Snider or Davis instead? So finally out of out of EricThames, Raja Davis and Travis Snider in Toronto, who has the most up side this year?

Posada for Pierzynski is a reasonable move but I don’t like Hart for Thames. Hart is simply more proven while the inexperienced Thames could fizzle out at any moment. I would’ve stuck with Hart despite his inconsistency this year.

I picked up Vargas w/PoD slot…should I drop Carrasco to pick up Norris? I’ve had Carrasco for his last 5 starts…he’s been good to me. h2H league max 5 moves per week…trying to use at most 3 during week for PoD, keep 1 for injuries, 1 for following week (Sunday into Monday)….Norris worth it?
Thanks
Josh

For this year I’ll take Wigginton. Snider has yet to prove that he can be a quality big league hitter over an extended period of time, so until he does that I don’t think mixed league owners can rely on him.
